semi-automatic mouth // false alarm

Amparo froze where she was when she saw the knife coming, back arched and hackles bristling. Is this allowed? Is that allowed?? "[color=#6babb3]Wa-Wa-Was th-, was that," She frowned, too perplexed, suddenly, to bother maintaining the act (it was starting to get uncomfortable being so sticky with bird gore, besides). She had known these guys were rough, that was why she came here in the first place, but that? That was..."[color=#6babb3]Th-Th-That was, was ffffucked up! H-H-Hey, gi-give me that, that uh, th-that kn-knnnnife, I-I-I'll sho-, I'll show you whe-where you can, where you c-can st-t-tick it, yo-you hul-ulking p-p-piece of shit," She rattled off, standing on her toes to face Vagabond as if it would make any difference, make her look any bigger at all to a creature that could probably end her life with a well-aimed sneeze. Amparo wasn't in the business of making wise decisions.

She looked at Jiyu when questioned and smiled impishly, little needle teeth still stained red. "[color=#6babb3]Oh, d-d-don't worr-orry about it. I was uh, I-I was ju-just ch-checkin' some se-se-security stu-, uh, s-stuff out. Ju-Just runnin' a li-, um, little t-t-test. Yo-ouu...Y'failed. You l-lost. The fu-, the fucking ga-game." She plopped her little ass down and started grooming herself, getting around the ears with a few thorough scrubs. "[color=#6babb3]Wh-Wh-Which is a, uhhh, sha-shame. I th-th-thoouught I-I picked somewhe-, so-somewhere compe-pe-pe, comp-, ugh" She pursed her lips, annoyed. "[color=#6babb3]Good. S-Smart. B-B-But then, yo-you have this, this, this bozo he-here tak-tak-taking potshots for, f-for no good re-reason. D-D-Dumbass do-doesn't even kn-kn-know what, kn-know what wo-words mean." She set the most withering glare she could manage on Vagabond.

She shifted when Sephiroth came onto the scene, taking mental note of the ensuing interaction while she busily cleaned herself off, paying close attention to get the sand out from between her toes. She was inclined to quietly support the defense of Jiyu, seeing as the calico had won maybe a solid hour of not being on Amparo's shitlist with the rest of every living creature solely because of her teleportation intervention, but she didn't voice any of that. She'd die before letting somebody know she appreciated something they'd done, and that was how it would always be.
